This problem happened with merlin beta2 b77 also.
Name: yyT116575 Date: 08/31/2001
Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-beta2-b77)
I have Netscape 6.1 installed in my machine.
The install program j2sdk-1_4_0-beta2-win.exe tries to save
dll's in c:\Netscape\\Plugin.
A double backslash is used instead one backslash.
A path with \\ (double backslash) is not allowed in windows.
With other words a path (as a String e,g. "c:\\Netscape\\Plugin") in java
is ok,but not as a physical location.
*****************************************************
No Win OS accepts a real path location in that form :
c:\\Netscape6.1\\Plugin or c:\Netscape6.1\\Plugin
(You can verify that by installing the j2sdk-1_4_0-beta2-win.exe,
and you need to have Netscape 6.1 installed on the machine)
*****************************************************
Another bug is, why has the system property ->sun.boot.class.path=
(showed in java console) the following jars's as a doubled entry:
C:\PROGRA~1\JavaSoft\JRE\1.4\lib\charsets.jar;
C:\PROGRA~1\JavaSoft\JRE\1.4\lib\jaws.jar;
C:\PROGRA~1\JavaSoft\JRE\1.4\lib\jce.jar;
C:\PROGRA~1\JavaSoft\JRE\1.4\lib\jsse.jar;
C:\PROGRA~1\JavaSoft\JRE\1.4\lib\rt.jar;
C:\PROGRA~1\JavaSoft\JRE\1.4\lib\sunrsasign.jar
